I currently have an S2000 and have fallen in love with it over the last 40K miles. It had a few handling traits that I didn

I don't know what your actual question is but from reading your post it seems your wife really likes the DB9 and you are between a DB9 and X50. I say get a DB9 or keep your S2000 and get a used Turbo.

Wife: don't modify cars (even though it's $100,000 cheaper).
Wife: I love the DB9

I don't get it. For $10k you can have impressive numbers with your Honda... but she wants you to spend $100,000 more instead?

Keep your honda, add $10k and buy her a SL65 instead?

The real question is whether you actually drove any of these cars.

Looking at his other post, he's looking to get a new DB9 and a used HONDA ELEMENT? That's an odd combination.
